Lindy is set up as an AI employee you teach with skills. Tutti asks which steps run, in which order.
You need an app Tutti doesn’t connect to.
Lindy lists over 1,500 integrations. Tutti has 30+, an HTTP step for any API and custom connectors.
Moving from Lindy to Tutti.
Describe each Lindy in a sentence.
Tutti draws the workflow from your words, and you can change any step.
Connect the same apps.
Sign in to each app once per workspace. For an app Tutti lacks, use the HTTP step or a custom connector.
Run it once, then switch it on.
Run the workflow by hand and read what each step did. Then turn on its schedule or webhook, and turn the Lindy off.
